Distractions from Yourself

Quick note: I’m trying to clear out my WIP 🚧. It’s getting too chaotic. So am unloading some garbage, I mean stuff I was not big on. I didn’t really like this distraction entry as it felt too negative, while it has a message, um.. I definitely don’t recommend destitution! 😅 I also don’t think my words for each letter REALLY match the theme. Enjoy, or not. I don’t care!

Distractions from Yourself

Dying a slow death, yet at least your co-workers are too,

In tune with each other and ‘success’ but out of

Step with ourselves -

Timing everything to the last detail - order is key and a

Resurgence of conformity superseded any of our own thoughts,

Amazing how quick we’ve turned from eager youngins to super-zombies,

Clocking in each day for what? Prosperity? Who needs it?!

Tick-et-y time-time-ticks - hours bleed into one big smoking rotisserie!

Indeed there’s some purpose, but at what neglectful costs?

Operations are in full-swing & standards are at an all-time high!

Never surrender, sharpen your own self instead whilst

Souls are destroyed for a measly buck!
